    Really tried. They just totally suck for us. Sygic isn’t great either but way more helpful (with lane-assist or speedcam warnings and such). And the yearly sub costs a tiny fraction of what Bentley would want for a post-warranty service with nav-update 😁

    Sadly found no better alternative so far, especially because I effing hate google and have it removed 99,9%.

        Not OP: I can’t give up gmaps because none of the open source maps I tried allow me to search for business name or a type of business (gas station, grocery store etc). I am sure they would guide me wonderfully but I would need to look up the address first and that’s less than ideal when driving.

          Have you tried Comaps? I can write in the searchbar something like “grocery”, "market’ etc etc and it will give me releated results

        At least what i said above. Comfort-features. The open ones are great, don’t get me wrong. But not here and not for cars. At least not for me. Would’ve otherwise prefered open of course.

          I had a pretty good experience with Comaps but i guess the open map is not good for every place, which makes sense for such a project since it need people to work well

            I don’t actually remember comaps. But those crowd-sourced are usually problematic here, as you already pointed out. I can live with Sygic though. Good lifelong discount for yearly, and it’s european :)
